Borna Disease Virus Nucleoprotein Requires both Nuclear Localization and Export Activities for Viral Nucleocytoplasmic Shuttling

Abstract excerpt

Nuclear transport of viral nucleic acids is crucial to the life cycle of many viruses. Borna disease virus (BDV) belongs to the order Mononegavirales and replicates its RNA genome in the nucleus. Previous studies have suggested that BDV nucleoprotein (N) and phosphoprotein (P) have important functions in the nuclear import of the viral ribonucleoprotein (RNP) complexes via their nuclear targeting activity. Here,...
